Hello all. I am new to Linux. The problem i had is that when my fedora boots and goes into the GUI, My monitor turns off and says
"74K / 59 Hz Frequency is out of range"

I then started the kernel in run level 2 and tried to run config-system-display
it did'nt worked. I opened the configuration in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. But it does'nt have the configuration for the monitor frequencies.

The Graphics card I am using is ASUS/ Nvidia Geforce 8500gt.

The Xorg configuration file was having the display driver to be "VESA". I changed that to nv that also did'nt worked
Please help

Actually To use the internet i have to boot to windows i will now reboot to fedora and tell you weather it works or not
.

Just stand By

Thanx:mrgreen:

Try the command gtf.
For example if you want to give the parameters 1024x768x85Hz you would use it as: gtf 1024 768 85 in terminal, and you'll retrieve the correct horizontal frequency for the 85Hz vertical frequency. After that you'll be able to give the correct parameters to the lines Casper gave you.

Have you checked Monitor's Manual for supported Refresh rates?minthaka's solution should work fine.
